That need for balance is true of electric power grids, too. Spiking demand for electric heat collided with supply problems created by frozen natural-gas equipment and below-average wind-power production. That would mean installing vast amounts of energy storage, such as. unprecedented and deadly winter freeze.

The fuel cell in FCEVs generates energy by combining hydrogen and oxygen from the air. The fuel cell’s electricity then powers an electric motor, which drives the vehicle like a BEV.
